Congress leader Girija Vyas on Thursday questioned the claims of the Union government on the employment front while accusing the BJP of not doing much in the two years of BJP rule.

HERE'S WHAT SHE SAID:

Addressing a press conference on Thursday, the day the NDA government completes two years, the former Union minister said that there is skepticism about the claims on GDP growth rate as claimed by the NDA government. She said that the NDA government had only rechristened schemes started by the previous UPA government.

Vyas also scoffed at the pre-poll promise of getting black money back. "Have you received Rs 15 lakh in your account?" she quipped.

When asked if the Congress was going in for major restructuring after the defeat suffered by the party in the recently concluded Assembly elections in states, Girija Vyas said she was not aware of any such plan.

Vyas also said that the BJP had promised 2 crore jobs a year in case they were voted to power. She said that considering the claim, 4 crore jobs should have been added. In reality only 1.55 lakh jobs had been added by the union government, she claimed.
